Iud inserted 2weeks ago. initially i was able to feel the strings but now i barely can. gyn said this is normal for some women. no pain. shud i worry?

IUD: Inability to feel the string few weeks after IUD placement is not unusual. You can ask your doctor for the following : 1. Speculum visualization of the cervix to confirm string. 2. Pelvic ultrasound to confirm adequate placement of the iud. Goodluck.
